Jardim das Gorgónias

★★★★☆ (6,801)

This spot is one of the most popular in the area, only because of its easy orientation and the diversity of life. The most common course is to keep the rock on your left side and circle around it, taking into account that the north side of the rock is less deep, allowing for a long dive.

Forkbeard fish, octopuses, morays, and a wide diversity of sponges, anemones, and algae. Plus, lots of sea stars in different colors.
